NEW DELHI: Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan on Wednesday lost contracts, after both the batter decided to miss Ranji Trophy matches, as BCCI announced annual retainership for 2023-24 season.
Kishan has been on an extended break "due to personal reasons" since coming back from the India tour of South Africa in December-January. He has been practicing with his Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya at Baroda, but has not turned out for Jharkhand in the Ranji Trophy despite being told to play the tournament by the Indian Board. Iyer was absent from Mumbai's final Ranji Trophy league match against Assam at BKC and also missed the Ranji quarter-final against Baroda.
